He interrupted his education in 1943 to serve in the United States Navy as a patrol pilot from 1943 to 1946. He attended the University of Denver for his B.A. (acquired in 1948) and his law degree, LL.B. (acquired in 1950). He was admitted to the bar in 1950 and began the practice of law in Pueblo.
